"12-light Chandelier In Gilt Bronze, Napoleon III Style – Late 19th Century"
This late 19th century gilt bronze chandelier perfectly embodies the Napoleon III style. It is composed of 12 lights, each decorated with a satin glass tulip globe, fixed on a finely chiseled circular base. The floral decorations and other plant motifs add a touch of refinement to the whole. The chandelier seems to be suspended by four garlands of acanthus leaves, creating an impression of lightness and elegance. The base forms an openwork half-globe, surrounded by foliage, ending with a half-spinning top topped with a garland. This meticulous and precise work bears witness to the exceptional know-how of the craftsmen of the time, making this chandelier a centerpiece for a successful interior decoration. ******** Period: Late 19th century Excellent condition.
